Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) strategies are about more than social and racial justice, altruism, or filling hiring quotas. They should be focused on defining precisely what DEI means to an organization and cultivating a culture of belonging in the workplace for all individuals, regardless of their background, race, experience, etc. DEI starts at the top. If the CEO isn’t bought in, it’s going to be near impossible to get the rest of the organization on board. In this episode, Yolanda Chase, Chief Diversity Officer, WTIA, and Michael Schutzler, CEO, WTIA, discuss the critical importance of DEI integration in tech organizations, reflect on areas of progress and improvement in DEI in 2022, and offer their predictions on what DEI trends to expect in 2023.
